Calling all modular trained pilots! Take your career further, higher, faster with the brand new First Officer Modular Pathway from BA Cityflyer.

Designed to take modular pilots directly from training into the right hand seat of an E-jet, this is a part funded rolling programme which reflects the value that BA CityFlyer and Kura place on the skills and qualities that modular pilots bring to the industry.

Key Features of the BA CityFlyer Modular Pathway:

Available exclusively to modular trainee entry pilots

Commercial Pilot Licence and Instrument Rating required

Pre-entry selection process

Part funded BESTPILOT training

Fully funded JOC

Fully funded and bonded Embraer 170/190 type rating

Following a two stage selection process, successful applicants will receive a First Officer job offer which is subject to satisfactory completion of the training.

Kura’s BESTPILOT programme is part sponsored and will include an enhanced MCC, Upset Prevention and Recovery Training and pre type rating training.

After completing BESTPILOT, the Jet Orientation Certificate and Embraer 170/190 type rating will be paid for by BA CityFlyer and is fully bonded.

Kura’s MD, Isobel Hall says, ‘We are delighted to have been selected to partner with BA CityFlyer to create more employment opportunities for modular trained pilots. Importantly for the industry, this joint initiative provides further assurance to aspiring pilots that airline opportunities are available to those that choose modular training, and at significantly less cost.’
